They used to walk right past my door without a glance
I pitched my hunger to a room that never felt me
They smiled at my name then deleted the demand
A young dream starved while the gatekeepers fed me lies
I built a small fire in the parking lot alone
Flat broke but my heartbeat carried its own tone
No one knocked on my door, so I knocked on my spine
Now all the gatekeepers pretend they know the line
They quote my old words back like they wrote them first
And I just laugh inside at the sudden thirst
A ping in my pocket, watch a crow flies right back
The vultures left a check under the welcome mat
They always said your work's a little too weird to fund
Now every inbox opens up like a second sun
They ask about my rate as if in love
But I remember every single one
Cash herds to my lane
Iron doors swing with a new shine
I don't trust the warmth in their hello
It tastes like sugar on rotten vine
I built this alone
So watch the hands that never touched the stone
They want a piece of the sudden rise
But my early birds are long gone by now
Let them wait
I used to call them first, they never picked up
Now my pocket buzzes with a seat at the top
They call it vision, I call it a delayed yes
They never read a line when my star was a plot
I kept my fire burning, hunger at noon
They take me to lunch, ask me to teach them the tune
The bread I once broke now is buttered by their spoon
I swallow the pride with a polite aftertaste
The times I begged them for a little room
Now they beg for crumbs and call it a product
I hear the cash digging itself a golden root
And the very door that locked now asks for my foot
They used to say my work's a little too weird to fund
Now every inbox opens up like a second sun
They ask about my rate as if in love
But I remember every single one
Cash herds to my lane
Iron doors swing with a new shine
I don't dance to the beat they sold me
My hunger was true before their checks
Now the gate is mine
They can buy the room not the years of grime
I sign their terms all on my own time
Let them think the credit is theirs to shine
I know why
